  • Question

    I uploaded these images once but did not know if you received them. This was a shrub about 8 feet tall and wide which I saw in Belastrand, Norway. Wonder if you can identify this plant for me? Many thanks. Plantwoman

    Answer

    Dear plantwoman, I responded to your previous inquiry about these plants, here was my response (sorry you did not receive it): plantwoman, your photographs appear to be of an Astilbe (false goat's-beard), a group of plants native to North America and Asia. These belong to the Saxifragaceae (saxifrage family). I do not know the exact species, but hopefully this gives you a good start on researching this plant. Best wishes.
